Goku’s Kamehameha was being pushed back little by little by the Sphere of Destruction.
[What’s going on? My God Ki is clearly stronger than his, yet his attack is pushing mine back. Could it be because of Hakai?] Goku’s mind raced as he analyzed the current situation.
The power of Hakai was far more terrifying than he had imagined. Mastering Power of Destruction didn’t merely increase one’s strength; it brought about a qualitative transformation in every aspect.
Fortunately, he still had a trump card up his sleeve. Otherwise, he really might lose this battle!
“Kaio-ken!!” Goku gritted his teeth and directly activated Kaio-ken while in his Super Saiyan Blue Evolved state.
Accompanied by the eruption of a deep, blood-red aura, Goku’s God Ki and strength experienced an explosive increase.
The blood-red energy merged with his deep-blue God Ki, continuously increasing the power of his Kamehameha.
With the addition of Kaio-ken, Goku’s Kamehameha directly overwhelmed the Sphere of Destruction released by Toppo.
“What?!” Feeling the terrifying pressure rushing toward him, Toppo’s expression changed drastically, his face filled with shock.
This shouldn’t be possible! Having discarded everything unnecessary and embraced the Power of Destruction, he should be the strongest.
No! No matter what, he would never allow himself to lose, even if it cost him his life.
“Hakai~~~!!!” Toppo shouted, releasing his Power of Destruction at full capacity. The symbol of Destruction on his chest also began emitting an eerie purple glow.
Under the influence of this purple light, Toppo’s strength continued to erupt, and his Power of Destruction increased explosively. Its boundless might swept through the Null Realm like a raging torrent.
As Toppo exerted his strength, Goku’s Kamehameha was pushed back once again. Feeling the pressure, Goku erupted with even greater power, increasing the multiplier of his Kaio-ken and forcefully suppressing Toppo once more.
His Kamehameha continued advancing, and Toppo’s Power of Destruction was faintly showing signs of being completely shattered by it.
“In the end, I’m the one who’s going to win this battle!! Toppo!!” Goku shouted, continuously intensifying the energy pouring from his hands.
Toppo’s Sphere of Destruction was forced back again and again, and the scales of victory tilted increasingly toward Goku.
But at this critical moment…
The Trio of Danger from Universe 9 made their move!
They had long harbored resentment toward Goku and had been secretly observing his battle, waiting for an opportunity to eliminate him in one fell swoop.
Now that such a perfect opportunity had presented itself, how could they possibly let it slip away?
“Goku!! We’ve finally gotten our chance!”
“Hehehe… There’s no escaping this time!!”
“Triangle Danger Beam!!”
…
Basil, Lavender, and Bergamo, the three werewolves, roared simultaneously, unleashing their combo technique.
An unstoppable wave of destructive energies erupted, tearing through space as they shot straight toward Goku’s back.
“What?!” Sensing the enormous danger approaching from behind, Goku’s expression changed drastically. He suddenly turned his head, only to see the overwhelmingly destructive Triangle Danger Beam rushing toward him.
Unable to dodge, Goku was struck directly by the Triangle Danger Beam.
‘BOOOOM~~~!!!’ Violent energy exploded with a thunderous roar. The incredibly powerful Triangle Danger Beam disrupted Goku’s offensive rhythm, causing his aura to weaken to a certain extent.
“Now’s my chance!!” Toppo seized the opportunity and unleashed every last bit of his Power of Destruction, forcefully shattering Goku’s Kamehameha.
The enormous Sphere of Destruction descended straight toward Goku, carrying the ultimate destructive power capable of annihilating everything.
“Oh no!!!” Unable to evade, Goku’s expression changed drastically. The Power of Destruction contained within it caused every single cell throughout his body to scream uncontrollably in terror.
“AAAAAAAHHH~~~!!!!” Swallowed by the Sphere of Destruction, Goku let out an agonized scream.
He unleashed his God Ki with all his might in an attempt to resist, but under these circumstances, he was completely unable to activate a higher multiplier of Kaio-ken.
“Hehehe, Goku, this is exactly what you deserve!” Basil, the red werewolf, laughed sinisterly.
“If it weren’t for you, this Tournament of Power would never have been held. Someone like you deserves to die~!” Lavender, the yellow werewolf, spat out poisonous gas, an eerie blood-red gleam flashing through his eyes.
“Hehehe… In the end, we’re the ones who get the last laugh.” The sinister grin on Bergamo’s face, the eldest of the Trio of Danger, grew even wider.
If Goku really died, it would be exceptionally good news for them.
After all, he wouldn’t have died at their hands.
“It’s over… Goku…” Toppo pressed his advantage and delivered the final fatal blow to Goku.
He raised his right hand, and a particle of Hakai appeared in his palm before instantly entering the enormous Sphere of Destruction.
As the particle of Hakai entered, the enormous Sphere of Destruction erupted violently.
‘BOOOOM~~~!!!!’ The thunderous roar of the exploding Hakai energy shook the realm.
Its terrifying power directly pulverized a corner of the arena.
A dazzling light of Hakai erupted.
All the contestants in the arena, along with the Gods of Destruction and Angels in the spectator stands, became fully alert at this moment.
Before long, the destructive light from the explosion dissipated.
‘Crackle~~!!’
At the center of the explosion, an unfathomably deep crater appeared.
Deep purple lightning still flickered within the enormous crater.
But there was one thing missing… Goku was nowhere to be seen.
Moreover, no trace of Goku’s Ki could be detected through Ki Sense.
“Hahahahaha~~~!!! He’s finally dead!! Goku is finally dead!!” Bergamo laughed wildly. Their decision to intervene had indeed been the right choice.
Their Triangle Danger Beam had caught Goku completely off guard, allowing them to use Toppo’s power to eliminate him.
This way, not only would they avoid elimination, but Toppo would also be eliminated for violating the tournament rules.
Killing two birds with one stone!!
This felt amazing!!
“You b*stards…!!” At this moment, Toppo finally realized what had happened.
He had been tricked!
He had been wondering why these guys from another universe had suddenly interfered. These three were full of wicked schemes, so how could they possibly have been doing something good?!
Now that he had killed Goku, he would also be eliminated!
Toppo was filled with anger, extremely furious at himself for losing his composure.
According to the tournament rules, having killed Goku meant that he had already been eliminated!
“Hahahahaha~~!! To think that a mighty God of Destruction candidate couldn’t even figure out something so simple. How embarrassing!” Basil mocked.
“Seeing you so angry is truly delightful. I just love watching you high-and-mighty fellows seethe with rage while being completely helpless to do anything about it,” Lavender sneered.
At this moment, Toppo could only clench his fists unwillingly and turn his gaze toward the supreme throne above the arena.
He had killed Goku. How would Lord Zeno rule on this?
